@andersoncooper: Mariska Hargitay kept a family secret for more than 30 years: The dad who raised her, Mickey Hargitay, was not her biological father. She talked with Anderson Cooper about that and her longing to connect with her mom, actress Jayne Mansfield, who died when she was three. Watch the conversation at cnn.com/allthereis or wherever you get your podcasts. #grief #grieftok #griefandloss
I used to think Anderson was great. Till he abandoned Kathy Griffin. Haven't watched his new years since. Such a shame.

The Silent Suicide (Book) :
Anger is an interesting emotion. The only reason we’re angry is because we have projected our needs or expectations onto someone who cannot possibly meet them.

I have the same secret. Not that big of a deal. We’re adults and we have to get over it. And move on!

Never knew all this about her. I'm going through a horrible time and bad things myself. I was left in a mess and have so many secrets. Sometimes secrets are better left to yourself I learned. In her case it seems therapeutic and ok at least

It is exhausting to be angry at a "dead person". I get it.

I used to say my mom was doing the best she could, but I grew up in very similar circumstances and chose differently, so I know it’s not true. I can’t excuse her choices for that reason. I do have empathy and am by nature a forgiving person, but I know my siblings and others don’t feel the same, and I have to give them room to feel that way.
